“I got kicked out of college. That was the moment I had to grow up—not just as a player, but as a man.” – Davon DillardWhen I first saw Davon Dillard playing for the Saigon Heat, I knew I had to talk to him. He stood out immediately—not just because of his athleticism on the court, but because there was something about his presence. He looked focused. Grounded. Professional.And as it turns out—his story is even more powerful off the court than on it.Davon opens up about hitting rock bottom after getting dismissed from Oklahoma State, and how that moment became the spark for personal growth, discipline, and a complete lifestyle change. Now, not only is he playing pro basketball in Vietnam, but he's also a published author, a proud vegetarian for over a decade, and someone who's using his story to lift others up.This one's about more than basketball. It's about identity, transformation, and how we can all use our lowest points to rise higher than ever before.Key Talking Points- What it's like playing for the Saigon Heat and the basketball culture in Vietnam- First impressions of Vietnam, and how Davon's family reacted to the move- What it's like being a tall, tattooed, Black athlete in Asia- How a lifelong aversion to meat turned into 11+ years of vegetarian living- Thoughts on Vietnamese food (and navigating “healthy” options)- The power of resilience, community, and building a legacy through writingChapters and Timestamps06:20 – Basketball in Vietnam: Clappers, crowds, and why it's catching on10:15 – Standing out in Asia: On being tall, tattooed, and Black in public15:40 – The turning point: Getting kicked out of college and hitting rock bottom26:30 – Writing three cookbooks and building purpose beyond basketball34:00 – Going vegetarian: childhood food aversions, fasting, and discipline40:00 – Protein & performance: how he fuels his body with mushrooms, eggs & juice"Send me a message!"This Season is sponsored by Premier Dental.Discover the potential of a confident and healthy smile with the excellent dental clinic in Ho Chi Minh The full list of winners is here.

The primary focus of this podcast episode revolves around the profound impact of personal narratives on human connection, particularly when discussing difficult life experiences. The speakers reflect on how sharing their challenging stories elicits emotional responses from listeners, often leading to moments of silence and sadness. This somber atmosphere prompts a desire to shift the conversation towards more uplifting topics, such as sports, which serves as a coping mechanism for navigating discomfort. Furthermore, the discussion delves into the speaker's professional journey in basketball and cinematography, emphasizing the significance of travel and cultural exchange in shaping their worldview. Ultimately, the episode underscores the importance of perspective and the transformative power of storytelling in fostering empathy and understanding among individuals.Takeaways: The emotional weight of sharing personal hardships often leads to somber reactions from the audience. Transitioning from professional basketball to cinematography shapes one's view on success and fulfillment. Experiencing diverse cultures while playing abroad profoundly alters one's perception of the world. Traveling exposes individuals to new perspectives that challenge preconceived notions about safety and opportunity. Personal growth often stems from overcoming adversity and redirecting one's life path toward new opportunities. The impact of global travel on personal identity cannot be overstated, as it broadens horizons and fosters deeper understanding.

From time to time I am contacted by someone who says they have an interesting and thought provoking guest who would be perfect for Unstoppable Mindset. Such was the case when I was contacted about our guest this time, Dre Baldwin. Dre and I had an initial conversation and I invited him to appear as a guest. I must say that he more than exceeded my expectations. And now he is back for a second time with us with more stories and insights.   You may recall from my first episode with him that Dre grew up in Philadelphia. He wanted to do something with sports and tried out various options until he discovered Basketball in high school. While he wasn't considered overly exceptional and only played one year in high school he realized that Basketball was the sport for him.   Dre went to Penn State and played all four of his college years. Again, while he played consistently and reasonably well, he was not noticed and after college he was not signed to a professional team. He worked at a couple of jobs for a time and then decided to try to get noticed for basketball by going to a camp where he could be seen by scouts and where he could prove he had the talent to make basketball a profession. As he will tell us, eventually he did get a contract to play professionally. Other things happened along the way as you will hear. Dre discovered Youtube and the internet and began posting basketball tips which became popular.   In this episode we continue to discuss with Dre the lessons he wishes to convey as well as his life philosophy. Dre discuss more about the value and need for personal initiative. He tells us the value of having a personal initiative mindset and how that can lead to high performance.   I asked Dre about how playing basketball prepared him for his work in business. His answer will surprise you. It did me. As he points out, his business preparation came earlier and in different ways than playing basketball.   I also asked Dre why he left playing professional basketball. Again, his answer is fascinating. I will leave that for Dre to tell you.   I hope you enjoy my talk with Dre as much as I. Dre Baldwin provided many lessons we all can use. Who knows? Dre, you and I may talk again. Stay tuned.       About the Guest:   As CEO and Founder of Work On Your Game Inc., Dre Baldwin has given 4 TEDxTalks on Discipline, Confidence, Mental Toughness & Personal Initiative and has authored 35 books. He has appeared in national campaigns with Nike, Finish Line, Wendy's, Gatorade, Buick, Wilson Sports, STASH Investments and DIME magazine.    Dre has published over 8,000 videos to 142,000+ subscribers, his content being consumed over 103 million times.    Dre's daily Work On Your Game MasterClass has amassed over 2,900 episodes and more than 7.3 million downloads.    In just 5 years, Dre went from the end of his high school team's bench to a 9-year professional basketball career. He played in 8 countries including Lithuania, Germany, Montenegro, Slovakia and Germany.    Dre invented his Work On Your Game framework as a "roadmap in reverse" to help professionals with High Performance, Consistency and Results.    A Philadelphia native, Dre lives in Miami.   Ways to connect Dre:   http://Instagram.com/DreBaldwin http://YouTube.com/Dreupt https://www.facebook.com/WorkOnYourGameUniversity http://LinkedIn.com/in/DreAllDay http://X.com/DreAllDay http://TikTok.com/WorkOnYourGame   Kindly use this link for our Free book, The Third Day
